Thanks for the explanation - indeed, I agree with the concept but it is
unfortunately not what the client requires. Are there any workarounds
(ie any way to, for instance, access the page field switches or would I
be looking at a VBA solution which says something like:for every new
section page no restarts) so that I can number the first left-hand page
(verso?) to restart as page 1?

Thanks again all.
